Hosting the NSW title event for the third occasion, the track will see a field of 21 drivers from throughout NSW, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania compete for the top step of the podium.
Five-time NSW Champion Darren Kane won the title at Dubbo on two previous occasions (2010 and 2014) and finished second to Orange-based racer Lachlan Onley last season.
While Kane will not be competing at this season's event, Onley will be back in full force. As a member of the Dubbo City Speedway Club, he will be looking to defend his NSW title at what is considered his home track.
Off the back of his third-place finish in last Saturday Long Track Classic, he would be a definite contender heading into Saturday night's event.
Current Australian Champion Callum Harper (Tas) has been in solid form this season, having most recently dominated the $5000 to Win Long Track Classic, where he took the victory by more than half-a-lap on the huge 940-metre track at Leeton's Brobenah Raceway.
Current South Australian Champion Dave Gartner will be hoping to go one better than Harper, after finishing in second place behind him in the Australian Title.
Also joining the fray will be two-time Australian Champion Mat Pascoe (Qld), who finished second to Wayne Brims in 2009 and Kane in 2014.
Pascoe will be hoping to improve this season, while former NSW Champion Ian Brims (2006) and his nephew, three-time NSW Champion Wayne Brims (2005, 2008, 2009) of Tweed Heads, will both be hoping to add another NSW title victory to their trophy collections.
Three-time Australian Champion Mick Nicola (Vic) and his brother, current Queensland Champion Peter Nicola (Vic) will also contest the Title. The latter finished third in last season's NSW Title and second in 2012, so he will attempt to improve and clinch the top spot. The talent continues with the youngest driver in the field and current Victorian Champion Ryan Alexander (SA), as well as former NSW number 3 Matthew Williams (Qld).
Local challengers Chris Blyton and Darren Anning will be looking for a positive result on home soil.
Other nominations include Lucas Roberts (Vic), Jason Campbell (Qld), Steve Latham (Tas), Newcastle's Barry and Mark Towers, Wayne Dick from Lithgow, Leeton's Wayne Aylett, Narrabri's Dion Bennett, and Craig Davis, also from Newcastle.
The NSW Super Sedans Title will consist of three rounds of heat races and a 30-lap feature race.
Gates open to the public at 4pm, with racing to commence from 6pm.
